County administrator: jail construction progressing on time and within budget

Beltrami County Board of Commissioners · August 5, 2026

Summary

Administrator Barry told the board the jail construction is within budget, progressing on interior finishes and exterior work, and that commissioners may be offered a site tour in October once milestones are met.

Administrator Barry updated the board that construction on the county jail continues and remains on schedule and within the current budget. "We are still within budget and on time," he said, adding that interior finishes such as paint and cabinet installation are underway while holding-cell and other construction continues.

Barry said the exterior is taking shape with sidewalks, pavement and curb-and-gutter work in place and proposed an on-site tour for commissioners in October once key milestones are met. He asked commissioners to flag any scheduling conflicts so staff can coordinate the visit. No procedural action was taken; the update was informational.
